It has a tutorial that worked for my HP remote. Some buttons didn't work with the irw command.

This is one that I had tried. I don't have ir-keytable installed on this xbian, and I couldn't apt-get it either.

Code:
include "/etc/lirc/remotes/devinput.conf"
include "/etc/lirc/remotes/xbox.conf"
include "/etc/lirc/remotes/smt1000t.conf"
include "/etc/lirc/remotes/srm7500.conf"
include "/etc/lirc/remotes/mceusb.conf"

Did all of that and restarted lirc... same situation. No irw output, no response on XBMC.
Let's put it in simple perspective:

If mode2 works and you created a map with irrecord, then irw must work to if you configured lirc properly. That means putting the new created map in the right location. Somehow the last steps fails and i don't know why. So, please try to figure out why such an obvious thing doesn't work in you situation, check error codes, log files etc.
You're not the first to reach that conclusion. I don't know much about configuring lirc, but I've followed a ton of guides, and none of them seem to work. I thought irrecord would solve it, but there's clearly something still wrong. If you can point me in the right direction for log files, I'll check those out.

Otherwise, I ordered this remote, which people seem to have working easily: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-MEDIA-CENTER-REMOTE-CONTROL-USB-IR-RECEIVER-EMITTER-/150606208983?ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160
